Turtle Beach

Oahu's North shore Gateway

Turtle Beach, also known as Kukae'ohiki, stands as the welcoming gateway to Oahu's North Shore, nestled near Kahuku Point, the island's northernmost tip. This coastal haven has earned its reputation for the frequent sightings of turtles, drawing visitors to witness these magnificent creatures that often grace the shore.

Named Kukae'ohiki, translating to "excrement of the ghost crabs," Turtle Beach offers an authentic encounter with nature. Turtles often make appearances near the shoreline, creating a captivating spectacle. While their presence isn't guaranteed, the allure of Turtle Beach lies in the unpredictability of these marine visitors.

Swimming may be limited due to strong currents and rocky formations along the shore, but beyond the reef, the area transforms into a surfing haven. Diving and fishing enthusiasts also find solace in the waters surrounding Turtle Beach. For a more tranquil swim, neighboring Bayview Beach, with its protected waters and sandy bottom, offers a delightful alternative. Visit Turtle Beach for a chance to witness the enchanting marine life that defines this coastal gem on Oahu's North Shore.
